Nice. Could a baseball pitched at 90% the speed of light from [anywhere that could produce such a speed] make it to Earth and impact? What can cause chunks of matter to travel this fast?
- fragmede 2y agoCould one make it to Earth and impact? The universe is very large, so it's a possibility, but space is very big and very empty, so we'd have to get very very very very unlucky for that to happen. But supernova explosions, pulsars and neutron stars, gamma-Ray bursts, supermassive black holes, and (theoretical) dark matter annihilation could all do it.
